Oude man op een stoel met een houten been 1784

This etching by Robert Brichet, titled "Oude man op een stoel met een houten been" (Old man on a chair with a wooden leg), depicts a seated man with a wooden leg and a dog. The man's posture and facial expression convey a sense of weariness, while the dog looks up at him with curiosity. Brichet's detailed and expressive line work bring realism to the scene. The artwork, created in 1784, is a powerful portrayal of human resilience and companionship. This etching is currently in the Rijksmuseum collection, highlighting the museum's vast range of Dutch and international art.
